While on my vacation a few weeks ago visiting Julia and her family, I was fortunate enough to also be invited by my friend Bernd Rueckert to join him to Oktoberfest 2008.

I took a train to Munich, stood in line from 7:15am to get into the Augustiner tent (side note: "tent" is not a true description for this structure - it seats THOUSANDS), and had a blast! More pictures will be uploaded once I can find some free time from work/late-night-phone-calls/studying:^P.

We found a bench at around 7:25 a.m. and started drinking... and drinking... until 3:30ish (my idea of time/space was a bit blurry by that point). I have also uploaded a video of the event on youtube. Enjoy...

I spent my birthday weekend hanging out with some old friends back in Minneapolis (and semi-dressing-up for a costume party, using existing "props" and some add-ons). Got back on Sunday night and realized that I will be working my *** off for the next few weeks to drum up some business to wrap up this strange election year.

Speaking of elections... this will be the last one where I do not get a say on who gets elected. More details to follow this weekend, where I party Las-Vegas-Style with my friends Bernd and Jana who are visiting from Germany!

WISH ME LUCK.

I shall know by noon Pacific Time.

It's been a few months since I noticed that the lewislau.com guestbook is broken (no one can leave messages!). I finally spend a few days and got the guestbook back up and running again... Sign in if you want to leave a message for me...

Sitting in a wine bar on a Sunday afternoon in Albuquerque, New Mexico right now - I have been on the road for the past 10 days and have only a few more days to go before Julia comes to L.A. to spend a few weeks in the United States :)
